xAI sues Minnesota over law banning 'nudification' technology

Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company xAI has filed a lawsuit against the state of Minnesota over a new law that bans 'nudification' technology. The law, which is the first of its kind in the United States, makes it illegal to use AI to generate realistic nude images of individuals without their consent. xAI argues that the law is overly broad and violates free speech protections under the First Amendment. The lawsuit claims the law could restrict legitimate AI development and research. Minnesota's attorney general has defended the law as necessary to protect privacy and prevent digital exploitation.
